"Lippmann's highly
influential concept of the "stereotype" contended that
new
communication and
transportation
technologies had created a "world we have to deal with politically
out of reach, out of sight, out
of mind."
The "pictures in our heads" of
this world - the stereotypes - ''are
acted upon by groups of
people, or by individuals acting
in the name of groups." -
Christopher Simpson, Science of
Coercion
Keys to the kingdom of disaster
capitalism is dehumanization of
neighbors.
"Inability to identify with others was
unquestionably the most important
psychological condition for the fact that something like
Auschwitz could have
occurred in the midst of
more or less
civilized and innocent people.
Fellow traveling is primarily
business interest: one pursues one's own advantage before all else, and simply
not to endanger oneself, does not talk.
That is a general law of the status
quo.
The
silence under the terror was only its consequence.
The coldness of the societal monad,
isolated competitor, was the
precondition, an indifference to the fate of
others, very few people reacted.
Torturers know this, and put it to test
ever anew." - Theodor
Adorno
In an ancient hypothesis of the pre-Singularity ur-civilization, a
golem was a non self-conscious entity that acted
just like a conscious one: it
laughed, cried, talked, ate, and generally behaved just like a real person, and
if questioned, would claim to be
conscious - but behind its
superficial behavior, there was nobody home,
no internalized
model of the universe it lived in.
The
philosophers had
hypothesized that no such zombies existed, and that everything that claimed
personhood was actually a person.
But the
mammalians - those rugose,
endothermic anthropoids with their ridiculously small incisors and anarchic
social arrangements - knew better.
They also knew that you don't fight
an infowar attack with facts and figures, any more than you attack
a railway locomotive
with spears and stone axes.
You don't fight
a reptilian replicator attack by
throwing energy and matter at hatchlings that will just use the matter and
energy for fuel.
The more a
mammalian is forced
to corrupt empathy, the more she aches inside, and the more she grieves, the
more she hates the reptilians.
"Before launching any new
foreign adventures, the Bush
gang has some homeland housekeeping to take care of: it is going to sweep
up those pesky non-governmental organizations that are helping to turn world
opinion against US
bombs and brands.
The war on NGOs is being fought on two clear
fronts.
One buys the silence and complicity of mainstream
humanitarian and religious groups by offering
lucrative reconstruction
contracts.
The other
marginalizes and
criminalizes more independent-minded NGOs by claiming that their work is
a threat to democracy.
The US Agency for
International Development (USAID) is in charge of
handing out the carrots, while the
American Enterprise
Institute, the most powerful think-tank in Washington, is
wielding the sticks." - Naomi
Klein
Social stigma is
severe social disapproval of
personal characteristics or beliefs that appear
outside of social
cultural norms.
Social stigma often leads to
marginalization.
Words in parenthesis ( ) are examples.
Social
stigmas can be physical (leprosy,
anorexia nervosa,
obesity,
scars or
tattoos) or
mental
disabilities (mongolism),
disorders or
illnesses (acne), as well as
illegitimacy,
skin color or
membership with a specific
nationality, religion (Pentecostal) or
lack of religion (atheist) or they may harken to
fictional characters such as Vampires or
Zombies.
A social
stigma may be created by proclaiming oneself to be of a certain ethnicity
(mixed or minority), religion (Heaven's Gate),
ideology (neo-conservatism/neo-liberalism,
corporatist,
communist,
socialist),
political party (Nazism,
Zionism,
Wahhabism) in any
of a myriad of geopolitical and corresponding sociopolitical contexts in
various parts of the world.
What is accepted and expected in one social
culture may be seen as totally aberrant and decadent in the social culture
over the hills and far
away.
The perception or attribution,
rightly or wrongly, of
criminality in all social
cultures carries a strong social
stigma that creates exclusion zones.
Criminals (illegal
drug users, thieves,
pedophiles), those refusing to
abide by the rules of conduct of the
social culture, will be branded with a barcode.
Individuals perceived to have poor "manners" or "strange" behavior
are many times stigmatized as criminals even though there was no criminal
intent and the actions committed were infractions and trival misdemeanors.
Tribal stigmas
are either traits of an ethnicity, nation, or religion deemed to constitute a
deviation from prevailing normative combinations of ethnicity, nationality or
religious behavior or they may simply be
antiCulture.
Although the specific social
categories that become stigmatized can vary across time and place, the three
basic forms of stigma (physical
deformity, unacceptable personal
behavioral traits, and tribal outgroup status) are
found in throughout most cultures and time periods.
It is most likely
the tendency to stigmatize has evolutionary
roots.
Individuals that are perceived
to function poorly in the group environment are seen as
uncooperative and therefore
untrustworthy.
Coöperation is the
trademark of successful social groupings.
Of special note here it
must be pointed out that individuals who perceive a disjunction of the social
culture from actual real conditions and speak out may be stigmatize even though
they have a valid, if unpopular,
point of
view.
Sameness of human
nature arises from the fact
humans share
affinities that allow differences to be transcended in the
realization of common
pleasures.
Social cultural
conditioning creates social cultural bonds
through the creation of commonalities amidst
individual differences.
If human life is enriched by
good forms of social
organization it is to be expected that human life is impeded by
bad forms of social
organization.
Social
arrangements modify individual
self-awareness.
Individuals form
common notions as individuals can not entirely transcend their cultural
perceptions in relation to a their own particular social
culture.
1928 As
headmaster of Verdun High School in the
suburbs of Montreal Donald
Olding Hebb takes an innovative approach to education assigning interesting
schoolwork and sending
disruption outside.
1937 At the Montreal
Neurological Institute Hebb recognizes the
brain of a child could regain
partial or full function when a portion is removed but
similar damage in
an adult could be catastrophic.
He deduced the
prominent role external
stimulation play in thought processes.
Lack of stimulation causes diminished
function and sometimes hallucinations.
1942
At the Yerkes Laboratories of Primate Biology at the Yerkes National
Primate Research Center Hebb develops
emotional tests for
chimpanzees.
1949 In The Organization of Behavior Donald Olding Hebb
introduces the concepts of
synaptic
plasticity and cell assemblies to
provide a theory of the neurophysiological basis of behavior.
Hebb
influences all areas of psychology and neuroscience:
Hebbian Learning -
Connections between
neurons increase in efficacy in proportion to the degree of correlation between
pre- and post-synaptic activity.
Cell Assembly -
Group of neurons tend
to fire together.
Phase Sequence -
Thinking is the sequential
activation of sets of cell-assemblies.
"When an axon of cell A is
near enough to excite cell B and repeatedly or persistently takes part in
firing it, some growth process or metabolic change takes place in one or both
cells such that A's efficiency, as one of the cells firing B, is increased." -
Donald Olding Hebb
June 1, 1951 Donald Hebb, head of McGill's psychology
department, and officials from the Canadian Defence Research Board, the
CIA and the British Defence
Research Policy Committee meet to discuss research.
Donald Hebb is
tasked to experiments in sensory deprivation .
1957 CIA funds
bizarre experiments on
healthy confused
individuals keeping them asleep and in isolation for weeks or months;
administering doses of electroshock thirty to
forty times the normal power; testing experimental drug cocktails which
included neuroleptics,
LSD, PCP and
MDMA.
Many
victims are
normal people
seeking relief from minor psychiatric
ailments - postpartum
depression, anxiety,
even for help to deal with marital
difficulties.
They were used as
experimental test subjects,
without informed
consent - as human guinea pigs
to satisfy the thirst for information on how to control human thought
process'.
Project MKUltra eventually leads to the publication of the
KUBARK Counterintelligence
Interrogation manual which suggest the most effective method of passive
enslavment is social
isolation of the non-compliant.
1964 MKSEARCH
designed to develop, test, and evaluate capabilities in the covert use of
biological,
chemical, and
radioactive material systems
and techniques for
producing predictable human behavioral
and/or physiological changes in
support of highly sensitive operational requirements.
1973 CIA
Director Richard Helms destroys all MKUltra files.
1975 Church Committee reports CIA and the
DoD had conducted experiments on
both unwitting and cognizant human subjects as part of an extensive program
to influence and control human
behavior through the use of psychoactive drugs along with other chemical,
biological, and psychological means.
Presidential-appointed commission
releases information publicly that
reveals that, days
before his death, the CIA surreptitiously dosed Olson with
LSD.
Critical witness'
die strangely only days and weeks before they are to be questioned by
prosecutors; government officials refused to speak and those that do
suddenly developed severe
amnesia; crucial documents disapear; investigators were intimidated and
threatened.
Protracted social isolation of
adult mice induced behavioral, transcriptional and ultrastructural changes in
oligodendrocytes
of the prefrontal cortex
and impaired adult myelination.
Social re-integration was sufficient to normalize behavioral and
transcriptional changes.
Short periods of isolation affected chromatin
and myelin, but did not
induce behavioral changes.
Myelinating oligodendrocytes in the adult
prefrontal cortex respond
to social interaction with chromatin changes, suggesting myelination acts as a
form of adult
plasticity.
Prefrontal cortex is involved
in complex emotional and cognitive behavior.
Early social
experiences in neonatal or juvenile animals result in
defective developmental
myelination.
In mice deprived of social stimuli ultrastructural
analysis revealed thinner myelin sheaths in
prefrontal cortex,
but not in the corpus
callosum.
In social isolation, brain makes less myelin
Throughout our lifespan,
new sensory experiences and
learning continually shape neuronal circuits to form new
memories.
Plasticity of oligodendrocytes and myelin sheaths play
a crucial role in learning
and memory through modification of the oligodendrocyte lineage following
sensory experience.
Physiological and behavioural consequences of
plasticity manipulation is now recognized in the evidence for oligodendrocyte
and myelin dysfunction in neurodevelopmental disorders
with cognitive symptoms.
"Neuroplasticity has the power to produce
more flexible but also more rigid behaviors - a phenomenon I call "the plastic paradox."
Ironically, some stubborn habits and disorders are products of
plasticity.
Once a particular plastic change occurs in the brain and
becomes well established, it can prevent other changes from occurring.
It is by understanding both the positive and negative effects of
plasticity that we can truly understand the extent of human possibilities." -
Norman Doidge
The act of suicide, representing personal
unhappiness and the belief of powerlessness to remedy this condition, is
differentiated from attempted suicide which may involve
a call for attention.
The
pioneering thinker Émile
Durkheim recognized if anything can explain how we as individuals relate to
society it is suicide.
Egoistic suicide reflects
a prolonged sense of alienation from the
community.
Social distance can
give rise to apathy,
melancholy, and
depression.
Durkheim calls such
detachment "excessive
individuation".
In highly driven cultures
individual needs create colateral damage.
Altruistic suicide is characterized as
being overwhelmed by group goals.
These occur on the opposite end of
the social distance scale as egoistic suicide.
In an altruistic society the only reason
an individual is expected to kill her/himself is on behalf of society, for
example in military service or
because they have become a burden through old
age.
Anomic suicide reflects moral confusion and lack of social
direction, which is related to
dramatic social and economic
upheaval.
It is the
product of moral deregulation and
a lack of definition of
legitimate aspirations through a restraining social ethic, which could
impose meaning and
order on the individual conscience.
This is symptomatic of
a systemic failure of clearly defined goals and
roles.
People do not know
where they fit within their societies.
Fatalistic suicide occurs
when a person is
excessively regulated, when
their futures are pitilessly
blocked and passions
violently choked by oppressive discipline.
It is the opposite of
anomic suicide, and occurs in societies so oppressive
their inhabitants would rather die than live on.
The act of one agent commanding another
to hurt a third turns up time and again as a
significant theme in human relations.
It is powerfully expressed in
the story of Abraham, who is commanded by God to
kill his disobedient
failure of a son by working him to death.
The unique human awareness
of our own mortality enables us to ensure our perpetuation beyond death through
our impact on others.
People do not tend to think about killing
themselves every day.
Unfortunately there is
a deep seated self-hatred in
Western man due to the ponerological nature of Western
culture that revolves around the
Western ideological
mindset of control of self, circumstances and environment.
Westerners express anger when things do not go
as planned.
This anger turned inward results
in self-hate and self-annihilation.
This
anger turned outward mints
viscious internet trolls.
This
repressed subconscious
collective anger can be seen on a macro level as
Western culture destroys
ecosystems for short term economic gains.
Some events may appear to be
mass suicide but are actually

1931 Marshall Herff Applewhite Jr., the son of a Presbyterian
minister, is born in Spur, Texas.
1972 Marshall
Applewhite and Bonnie Nettles – a Texas music teacher and nurse meet
during a stay in a psychiatric institution.
They rename themselves Bo
and Peep and take a six-month-long road trip across the United States
taking in the sights.
1975 Applewhite is arrested for failing to
return a rental car and jailed for 6 months.
1985
Bonnie Nettles, born in 1927, dies of liver cancer.
1997 Marshall Applewhite takes 38 followers through Heaven's
Gate to hitch a ride on the comet Hale-Bopp.
Heaven's Gate is the first
well-known American cult of the Internet era, using the web to share their
beliefs with a wider audience and also to make a living.
A large portion
of income came from designing web pages.
Jim Jones grows
up in Lynn, Indiana.
Interested in
religious rituals his boyhood friendship with Dan Mitrione, chief of
police, kept him from being arrested or run out of town.
Chicken liver
was evidence of "cancers" he was removing by "divine powers."
Jim's
landlady called him "a gangster who used a Bible instead of a gun."
His
followers included Charles Beikman, a Green Beret later charged with the
murders of several
Temple members in Georgetown, following the massacre.
Dan Mitrione moved
on to the CIA-financed International Police Academy, where police were trained
in counter-insurgency and torture techniques.
1961 Jones, a poor, itinerant preacher, suddenly has money for
a trip to "minister" in Brazil, and he takes his extended "adopted" family with
him including Beikman, and eight mixed race children.
1965 Jim Jones establishes a People's Temple in Ukiah,
California.
"The Messiah from Ukiah" ran the Happy Havens Rest
Home with electric fences and guard towers.
Christian missionaries
from World Vision, an international evangelical order that had done espionage
work for the CIA in Southeast Asia, partner
up.
Dr. Layton donates a quarter-million dollars.
Peoples Temple
is highly-acclaimed for humanitarian
service.
Jim Jones is swiftly gaining a reputation as a political
dissident, setting up Peoples Temple as a public forum for a host of leaders
and causes on the left.
1974 George Blakey gives
Jim Jones $60,000 to pay the lease on the 27,000-acre Guyana site.
Local
journalist Kathy Hunter writes in the Ukiah press about "Seven Mysterious
Deaths" of the Temple members who had argued with Jones and attempted to
leave.
Kathy Hunter later tried to visit Jonestown, only to be forcibly
drugged by Temple guards and deported to Georgetown.
Jones requires
members practice for a mysterious "White Night,"
a mass suicide ritual
to protect them from murder at the hands
of their enemies.
1976 Mayor Moscone puts
Jones in charge of the city Housing Commission.
1977 Jones deposits $200,000 in
the Grenada National Bank.
He leases the Matthew's Ridge section
in Guyana originally the site of a
Union
Carbide bauxite and manganese mine.
Resources buried there are
thought to be among the richest in the world.
They include manganese,
diamonds, gold, bauxite and uranium.
Worked for 16 to 18 hours daily,
blacks are forced to live in cramped quarters on minimum rations -
rice, old bread and sometimes
rancid meat.
Infractions of the rules
or disloyalty punishments include forced drugging, sensory isolation in an
underground box, physical torture and
public sexual rape and humiliation.
Beatings and verbal abuse
are commonplace.
Jones has amassed incredible wealth.
Of
special interest are the bank accounts opened in Panama, the money taken from
the camp, and the extensive investments in Barclay's Bank.
Spring of 1977 A fierce smear campaign is concocted by Elmer
and Deanna Mertle, (Jeannie and Al Mills), and published in the Murdoch and
Hearst presses in San Francisco.
The Mills coordinated with David
Conn.
David Conn and his ex-wife Donna,
brag of "high priority
Treasury Department
numbers" in secretly taped conversations.
Intensive lobbying
campaigns in both Washington and Georgetown (the Guyanese capital)
follow.
Fall of 1977 After the original smear in
Murdoch's New West magazine, duplicate smears appeared in newspapers
thousands of miles apart, in the Toronto Star, where there was known to
be a large concentration of Guyanese settlers, and in the New Times
weekly in the Soviet
Union.
Full Gospel Christian Businessman's Association lawyer
Lionel Luckhoo represents the People's Temple in Guyana.
November 18, 1977
Leo Ryan is the most vocal
Agency critic in
Congress at the time.
Sam Houston, an old friend of Leo Ryan, came to
him with questions about the untimely death of his son following his departure
from People's Temple.
Ryan takes a team of journalists to Guyana
to seek the truth of the situation.
The airstrip death had all the earmarks
of a professional military hit.
Disturbing facts later emerged from the
Guyanese coroner, Leslie Mootoo.
Hundreds of bodies are forcibly
injected with cyanide from behind while trying to escape, shot with guns or
arrows.
187 bodies killed by cyanide injections were examined by
Mootoo.
Victims had been
injected in portions of their bodies they could not have reached
themselves, such as between the shoulder blades.
US Special Forces
(Green Berets) are in Jonestown within 6 hours.
"We saw many bullet
wounds as well as wounds from crossbow bolts." - Charles Huff, US Army Special
Forces
On the scene at Jonestown, Guyanese troops discovered a large
cache of drugs, enough to drug the entire population of Georgetown for a year.
According to survivors, these are used regularly "to control" a
population of only 1,100 people.
One footlocker contained 11,000 doses
of thorazine.
Drugs used in
MK-ULTRA are found in
abundance, including sodium pentathol,
chloral hydrate,
demerol, thalium, and
many others.
Larry Schacht has supplies of haliopareael, Largatil™
and other nueroleptics.
The actual description of life at
Jonestown is of a tightly run concentration camp, complete with medical and
psychiatric
experimentation.
Stress and isolation of the victims is typical of
sophisticated brainwashing.
Drugs and torture add an additional
experimental aspect to the horror.
This explains why the medical
tags on the bodies had to be removed.
It also suggests an additional
motive for frustrating any chemical autopsies, since these drugs would have
been found in the system of the dead.
February,
1980 Mills are found dead in their
Berkeley
home.
Police described the killings as "professional," using dum-dum
bullets while leaving no traceable clues.
Jonestown story is
a gruesome experiment, not a
religious utopian society.

This website defines a

outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to discern
pr☠paganda from reality and that this has been done purposefully by an

to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us
int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us
ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière
Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on
reason which requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme
leader, no church buildings and in which each and every individual is
encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with the Æon
through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing
the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The
tenets of the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out
in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against
individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a
"hate ¢rime."
This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the
contrary the intent here is to reduce the vi☬lence that is already
occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire

ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the
global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex
and is responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg●

Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with
bi☣hazards of a gun.
American social mores and values have
declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal

in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general through
c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal
